Hotel Peter’s restaurant serves great meat dishes cooked on hot stones in an atmospheric setting. The many eateries of the Alpenhotel, including Italian and Chinese, are worth a try.

Après Ski in Saalbach

One of the most infamous bars is Hinterhag Alm where the party starts and continues down into town to Bauer’s Schi-Alm, an old cow shed with attached umbrella bars. The uniquely renovated medieval jail that is now Zum Turm is an interesting place to have a drink after a long day. The nightlife is much quieter in Hinterglemm but Hinterhag is a fun, goat-themed bar that is a great place to enjoy a drink off the mountain.
